this is incredible. Hanging solar panels a few meters above crops of tomatoes and jalapeños multiplied their yield 2-3x, used substantially less water, controlled temperatures, and increased the output of the solar panels https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2301355120 #science #solar #environment #agriculture
And “yes” is the answer.

STUDY: An additional 20 minutes of commuting each day has on average the equivalent effect on job satisfaction as a 19% reduction in income, with longer commute times having a more negative impact on women’s job satisfaction than men’s. Via @WhatWorksWB

Happy Saturday everyone. If you’re an iPhone owner, today would be a great day to turn on Advanced Data Protection: this will end-to-end encrypt your iCloud backups so that only you (and people you choose) can see your photos and data. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT212520

@MirrorAyako @RickiTarr yeah:
Apple play, lunch time, afternoon play.
Did you check your mail today?
I'm sure you didn't because there haven't been many calls coming in on RC-BOX BBS #RC2014BBS (the world's first and - currently - only bulletin board system #BBS running on a #RC2014 )
Better fire up your #Telnet terminal client (#Syncterm, #Qodem or even #Qterm if you are using CP/M #CPM) and connect to:
rc2014.ddns.net on TCP port: 2014
so you won't be missing any news!
@Sh41 excellent time!
Malicious package flood on PyPI might be sign of new attacks to come https://www.csoonline.com/article/3688956/malicious-package-flood-on-pypi-might-be-sign-of-new-attacks-to-come.html#tk.rss_all
@kissane you definitely need to juxtapose this with the BBSs of the ‘80s … everything old is new again.
@kev 14hrs ago - but replying just in case, hoping all good now
Reminder: Monday, 6 March starts the 2023 Human Genome Editing Summit in London. For those of us in the U.S. who care to get up in the wee hours, the summit will be available via Vimeo or Zoom (see website). I believe the video will continue to be available after the meeting as well but that's just my guess.
